The Primary Objective of Life

Normally everyone is born, lives, grows old and dies and very few ever think seriously about the reason for their existence. If we ever do arrive at thinking about this it does not last long for in one form or another something happens, people, circumstances, different thoughts that separate us from this very transcendental and important question about our life.
The majority of people simply exist and if at times they feel uneasy about their existence they end up accepting as a finality those material things and concerns that sustain the passing of this life. There exists a veil of ignorance between the spiritual and the material and this should be eliminated with the wisdom and awakening of consciousness, in order to really know why and for what we are here.
The material understanding we receive here on earth serves in order to maintain our bodies. We are taught to serve the material life, but we are taught nothing about our spirit in a practical way because in order to know about the spiritual we need to look for the knowledge of the spirit. In the depths of ourselves we all desire happiness and eternal life, this feeling is stronger in some than others but this feeling always arises at some point in the course of our existence. The child begins its existence expressing all the energy and beauty of the spirit because it is pure and innocent.
When the child begins to learn to think and to use its body like a tool given by God in order to know itself, expressing many feelings and ideas that come from its interior being, these ideas and thoughts enter into the memory and constitute what is called the level of knowing.
Normally the level of being should develop simultaneously with the level of knowing but it does not happen in this way. The bad example of society and the family, the insensitivity and lack of understanding, the absence of love, the preoccupation with the illusory, the attachment to the material and the body and the material teachings and explanations that the child receives in response to the questions expressed by its interior being damage little by little the natural equilibrium that there should be in the education of the child in this existence, in order that it understands the true objective of life.

We are taught that religion is responsible for satisfying the spiritual necessities of man, it shows us material statues and figures or books made of paper that they say should be adored as if they were the spirit. However, all the elements that we find in religion are material, they were all made by the hands of men. God did not create any material religion. Christ did not come to inaugurate religions or churches of any denomination; He said that his Kingdom is not of this world, that the dwelling of God is in the heavens.
Christ said to His disciples that they must be detached from the material and the sin that results from it. Christ never said that the objective of life is to be rich and He never recommended capitalism, he opposed imperialism. All the religions were created for man.
Although they have the spiritual objective in principle, with the course of time they have separated from the great reality. Man became a slave to his own creation because the religions have degenerated and become institutionalised organisations with rigid moral codes of social conduct that lack the touch of life and the true spiritual and human sentiments. We have arrived at the actual moment where religion has practically changed into a new commercial enterprise with capitalist interests and little religiosity. Religion is a form of exploiting people and is used to justify war and invasions. When it is opposed, religion is mixed with politics, government representatives, corruption and dark concerns that repress human rights. Religions have committed the worst crimes and have arrived at great sadism against humanity.
Religions in the majority of their facets have de-naturalised and separated themselves very much from the creator they say they serve. Now humanity has arrived at playing with the beast, when we decide to exterminate plants, animals, countryside and populations, pollute the air and the earth with terrible poisons invented by the same demonic capitalism, with its excuses in order to destroy more and more the creation of God.
The bishops, the military, the police, the politicians, the pseudo-scientists and presidents say that there exist negative plants in order to justify their demonic and barbaric destruction yet in the book of Genesis its says VERY CLEARLY that God created the heaven and the earth, the water, the air, the plants and the animals and God saw it was good, it also explains in Genesis of the holy Bible that God gave his blessing to the creation he had made. So there do not exist negative or evil plants. God did not contradict Himself and His words are eternal as Jesus Christ said. The evil ones are those who have cursed creation and have committed crimes against life and the balance of nature.
Goethe wrote with good reason;

“All theories are grey except the golden fruit of the tree of life”

There exists a knowledge that is above all knowledge of the earth and it is the threshold to the knowledge of God, it is called ‘knowledge of ourselves.’ It is easy to speak of the knowledge of oneself, but it is very difficult to know ourselves. In order to reach this we need to free ourselves from the slavery of dogma, the emptiness of morals, the pride of intellectualism, the zealousness of religion and many other similar things that serve only as psychological prisons of the soul. Religious zealousness and fanaticism are defects that obscure our spiritual vision and dirty our souls, because when we shut ourselves in the dogmas and the mire of belief, we leave behind the perception that God is in all and is all.

To speak is very easy as it is to read and accumulate theories. If only some people would seriously reflect about this and all it signifies in a practical way in spiritual life before they continue in the error that is found in the trap of knowledge received through books, theories, by listening or speaking because the mind makes us believe that with all this we can understand everything. Many people after reading a book believe that they have grasped the complete understanding. There are many deceivers that speak very beautifully but their hearts are in the material world, and their words are full of lies and contain poison. Meanwhile the knowledge of the spirit is not influenced by the knowledge of the beast. The spiritual man knows to look inside of himself to find wisdom, for this reason he lives a calm and peaceful life and has no interest in acquiring the false honours of the world and of the beast.

The Gnostic Shamanism of the Light places great emphasis on understanding that this is the major error and great obstacle to us understanding that which is unfolding in our spiritual evolution. For example, there exist three kinds of relationship in the world and life.

1. The first relationship is with our physical body, to know deeply its possibilities and limitations, how much it can endure, how we can make it better, educate it etc.
2. The second relationship is with all that surrounds us, learning to relate to people and nature, if we fail to learn this we create many problems in our lives. We need to respect others, their ideas and their beliefs etc.
3. The third is the relationship of man with himself, not only at the physical level but also the psychological and spiritual, we relate with the different parts of our interior being, our interior universe that is described as orbiting our inner star (God).

Only with the knowledge of ourselves is it possible to arrive at knowledge of God, it is not possible to have knowledge of God without knowledge of ourselves first because God is great and if we do not have the capacity to know ourselves and the sins of this world first how are we supposed to know God who is the supreme of supremes. The knowledge of ourselves is necessary in order to comprehend our defects; this comprehension is necessary to be able to eliminate them. This is named in esoteric Christianity as the ‘psychological death’, “Deny yourself”, as the Master Jesus said.

For this reason we should begin to comprehend the objective of our lives or do you think we are born, grow and die for nothing? Do we believe that life is as terrible as the demonic forces have made it? We work to buy food to eat, we must pay to live and live to work and work to eat, we are told that life is to become wealthy, serve the military and the authorities that are enemies of the people etc. As it is everything is converted into a vicious circle, which leads nowhere, and from which we are not allowed to escape.
Repetition and repetition leads the masses to be mechanical and the unconscious individuals cannot be of any help in service of the light. The very rich people will say that they have time for their hobbies because they have money and luxurious pleasures but what do these diversions and pleasures consist of? All of this ends with the physical body and exhausts it and creates illness. It does not matter how we adorn the body in this life, death is the same for all.
Money and material possessions cannot be kept and we can take nothing beyond the grave.
All that we have carefully gained with so much sacrifice in this life ends with death, at death all that remains are the spiritual values that are discovered and cultivated with painful suffering and sacrifice, this is totally independent of whether we are rich or poor.

How many rich people with all their money are not able to replenish their empty hearts? How is it that there are poor that curse their poverty without understanding that the poor youth is never miserable because they always find a way through?
All these variable conditions of the material world are constantly changing, sometimes the rich become poor and those that are poor become rich but these are external appearances that in no way affect the majesty of the interior spirit, which is far beyond all these superficialities.
The value of that which we present to the great reality at the hour of our death is not the state of our bank balance but the state of our soul.
Whoever grows old poor of spirit, whether poor in material wealth or not, is in reality miserable because this is the truth of human misery, for this spiritual poverty and misery define those that are far from the understanding of daily life.

The knowledge of oneself is the way of the balanced man, the man that wants to live every instant and every moment of his life. Whether rich or poor, of one religion or another etc, is something secondary, to learn to live and understand why we are alive is important.

Everyone is free to choose in accordance with their aspiration and the environment around them, there are still those capable of changing their environment and situation whilst still conserving the essential transcendental impulse intact.

In all this there are levels of comprehension.

The fact that an individual decides to make a total U-turn in their life can seem strange to the general public, but for an authentic seeker of the truth it would be the most natural and logical thing to do.

To want to look, to know and to learn about the objective of life is not a question of philosophical theories or religious dogmas, it is something that is born and springs forth from the most profound depths of ourselves and that opens slowly with the experience of life in this material world.

Those who do not have this inclination in their hearts will never be able to embody it with theories, written words or spoken words because it is something that arrives from inside, deep inside.
